:: party : ::gift:: ::snow2::
 
Christmas is the world to me!!!! lol it is the best im going to be at Disneyland with my family after i open gifts of course! i love christmas a lot
 
It is never too early Foi!

I LUV Christmas! la-la-la

I cannot wait for the holiday, I'm so excited! The funness of it all, makes me so happy! The friends...the family....the magic....truly, it is the best time of the year.

I just want to keep on singing la-la-la's! Thanks for fantabulous reminder of what is in store the following couple of months! I am in a very smiley mood now! 🙂
 
Are you kidding? I've got it all marked on my calender: 47 days until my Christmas vacation starts!

Friends? Family? Singing and laughing? Pfft, no, no... Presents!

Probably having Christmas at my house like every year with most of my family. I celebrate Christmas just for the fun of the holiday - not for any religious reason.

And of course I'll be online, especially Buffy Boards to wish everyone a Merry Christmas.
 
lol same here i love my family but on christmas day if they are not dressed and by the tree at 6am forget them, im tearin into those presents! lol
 
I also am a Christmas lover even though I'm not a Christian - despite being brought up in that tradition - it's the peace and love aspect that I relate to (old punk verging on the hippy🙂). Although I do hate that the holiday season now seems to start sometime before Hallowe'en.

The best part for me is watching the little ones open their presents. They always like the most unexpected thing best. And there's such joy and innocence - it's like the real world takes a holiday for a few minutes at least.

And making up a Christmas list of pressies I would like - these days it's almost always books and movies.

Mrs Pointy gets quite exasperated with her 40-something going on 10 husband at this time of year😉

I'm not likely to be online on Christmas Day however, as I'll probably be at my Mum's where little bruv has a dial-up connection - so it's not fair to cost them money. But from Boxing Day onwards while I'm off work...
 
I like the whole spirit of Christmas and I'm usually happy and have those songs stuck in my head! I LOVE Christmas 'cause my most fave cousin comes back for vacation (usually with a Buffy or Angel DVD boxset in his hand) and I like him 'cause he's not always annoying or strict. I gotta love the presents, though. During Christmas vacation, I'll finally be able to watch my DVDs and relax! I've already gotten the Christmas presents I really wanted early, so I'm content. I'll be online if I can.
 
I like christmas, the plastic fake holiday with a tree and a snowman

I dispise christmas, the religious holyday about the birth of an easter bunny

I don't know whether I'll be here, what I'll get or anything else for that matter
 
im goin to be a party breaker and say.. i HATE christmas!!!

i dont know.. used to like it when i was a kid for the gifts and all.. but somehow as i grew up the whole christmas magic thing just disappeared for me. being russian and orthodox we never really celebrated christmas.. more like new-year's eve and all. but thats not the point.

it just feels to me that christmas is too fake.. a period of the year when everyone feels obliged to give gifts even when they dont feel like, to smile and send whishes of love and all around themselves..

besides we're suposed to celebrate jesus' birth and they arent lots of people who remeber that.. christmas is only about gifts, which is .. so material! buy buy buy give give give.. money money money..

ok, ill shut up before you all shoot me ^^;

oops.. just saw Lorne's post there.. im not the only one! yay!
 
who likes christmas? i love it

are you getting excited already? yes very

what presents do you want to get? money, clothes and a bloke!

what do you do for online friends at christmas? ooo youll have to wait and see!!

will you be online christmas day? yes

will you be alone or with others on christmas day? not sure yet, probably alone🙂

does christmas mean anything to you? nope, not religious in a xmas kinda way at all, i dont bend to the fake things as only people i see alot and love get a pressie as it costs too much other wise....cards i send about 150 every year cause i like to make others smile....i like all the sparkley lights and glittery things and xmas eve is a mannic place in my shop we take a weeks trade in 1 day but its so funny as we dress up and get our customers drunk and fed!!
I have always been in retail so xmas day i always just want to chill out and sleep! i remember when the magik left xmas i think i was about 17 and it didnt come back until i was 24 when i learned to make xmas for myself and take a more aduly view on it and also a selfish one...i think that was the first year i stayed alone on xmas day and just saw a few mates as retail is so exhausting on xmas day if your not working you just feel ratty and tried and just wanna do your own thing, that year i did and i loved it🙂
ooo im having verbal today!! excited much😀
 
I love Christmas but I always end up leaving my Christmas shopping to the last minute and then I'm in a mad rush to get everything.

I'm not that excited yet. I get really excited when I get my advent calender (yes I still have an advent calender...lol...)

I'll definately second that bloke present for Christmas, Foi...lol...I'll probably get the usual though, like clothes, CD's , videos.

I'm always with my family on Christmas, there's my mum, dad, brother, grandma and grandad and we have Christmas dinner at our house.

Foi, I'll be on line for Christmas, that way you won't be all on your own 🙂
 
i dont much like chrismas

i hate shops making out its round the corner months in advance

i hate the prats that act like its chrismas at the start of Dec

i hate the prats who act like its chrismas before the start of Dec (looking at you Foi! 😉 )

I hate the way you seem forced into buying things for people.

oh i hate relgion (a new thread comign soon!)

BUT saying that i like having time out to have time with my family having drink and eats alot.

but dont go on about it til 20th Dec AT the very earliest!!!!!



*comedy rant over*
 
I like christmas.

I hate it when stores start christmas ads before the end of november, so no not excited yet.

We don't do presents in this country.

I'm not going to do anything special for online friends, as I dont do anything special for normal friends either.

I will hopefully be online on christmas, unless we're going on holiday (which I very much fear).

I will probably be with my parents on christmas, maybe a friended family comes over, unless, again, we're on holiday.

Apart from eating lots of food and watching movies about Americans doing christmas the American/real way, I don't do anything, it thus means near to nothing to me.


I for once would like to spend christmas with my best friend, she's the only person I know that I care about. I'd love to spend it with her, perhaps some other friends too, but unfortunatly I dont have any.

Haha! I have lots of advent calenders from the past (my fav's anyway)! Every year a new one.....

We just picked out our Christmas cards for the office! It was so fun, we all sat around and voted on our favorite. It definitly helped put the preparing spirit in all of us!

I luv so many different aspects of Christmas...the very traditional, the very religious, and the very fun of it all combines together to make a truly wonderful experience. I wish it WAS Christmas all year long. Complete with fesitivies, joy and the light nature most seem to take on during that time of year!
 
I usually love christmas! but for sum reason I cant be bothered with the buying gifts, decorations, opening gift, family stuff it just aint as appealing to me anymore...I tink somethings rong wi me ::huh1::
 
I Loooove Christmas.

it's still a bit early to be excited but I've already started planning my presents to family and friends. That's what it usually means to me : an opportunity to share your love with your loved ones. I like to make my own presents and usually I make my younger siblings help me out. They love it ! I also like giving them a small gift on December 6, Sinterklaas day. I told them it was Santa Claus' birthday. If anyone here is from Belgium, you know what it's really like and I've missed it every year since I left the country.

I'm not online on Christmas Day, too busy playing with the little ones and eating delicacies made the days before by our relatives. But I like to send funny ecards to my online friends so they will certainly get one that day.

The only present I'd like to get would be my father, but he's joined the universe so I'll be looking at the stars at night...
 
I've always loved Christmas. I love the build up, that final week, especially Christmas Eve.

I'll be spending Christmas with my family. Visit relatives through the day and spend the evening at home with hubby and kids. For me, Christmas is extra special since they came along. I love the look on their faces when they see Christmas decorations or see Santa Claus. My son is autistic and he doesn't really "get" the whole Christmas thing, but he loves Santa Claus. My daughter is getting to the age when she's starting to cotton on to what's happening and she's already looking at catalogues and stuff to see what Santa can bring for her.

I'm not all that excited yet, my son has his 10th birthday at the beginning of December, once that's out of the way, then i can start looking forward to the season. I'm at the list making stage at the moment for the family. I enjoy Christmas shopping but the huge crowds can be overwhelming at times and i can get stressed out, but i love shopping for my kids. I enjoy wrapping the gifts too, which used to be my job until one year it all became far too much and now my husband helps and wouldn't you know, he's the perfect gift wrapper!.

Christmas giftwise, for me, probably DVD's, book tokens, clothes and perfume.

And i'll probably be on line on Christmas Day, more than likely in the evening time 🙂
